Wow that's nice! I wonder why those types of lures aren't more popular around here, is it because the tried and true methods work well enough? Maybe it is hard to immitate the action of a lobster?

And it probably casts like a piece of prime rib... however... it does look deadly... nice mold job.

Is it made from a plaster cast of a short?

I saw that thing at a recent meeting. Tough rubber and the tail will curl naturally if you rig it like likwid says. Sweet work.

nothing yet, but I only tried it in the canal attached to a 4 oz jighead because that was the only one I had with a 9/0 hook. I couldn't cast it very far at all. maybe if I had a hole close in someplace , it may work rigged like tattoobob said. we'll see

maybe I can try it on cuttyhunk in the fall

Nice bait! I think rigging will be critical. Does anyone know how the mad Russiian used to rig his lobsters?

That looks excellent! I wonder what the current will do to it in the ditch. I know just the hole to chuck it in.
